History
Mid 1800 – atomic masses of elements were known
Wrote down the elements in order of increasing mass
Russian Scientist Dmitri Mendeleev found a pattern of repeating properties.
Grouped elements in columns by similar properties in order of increasing atomic mass

Slide 4 of 28
The Modern Table
Elements are still grouped by properties
Similar properties are in the same column
Order is in increasing atomic number
Added a column of elements Mendeleev didn’t know about.
The noble gases weren’t found because they didn’t react with anything.

Transition Metals
The transition metals are the metallic elements that serve as a bridge, or transition, between the two sides of the table.
Transition metals are :
very hard
high melting points
high boiling points.
Electron configuration fills the d-subshell.

Classifying the Elements > Squares in the Periodic Table
The background colors in the squares are used to distinguish groups of elements.
• The Group 1A elements = alkali metals.
• The Group 2A elements = alkaline earth metals.
• The nonmetals of Group 7A are called halogens.

Classifying the Elements > Transition Elements
Transition Elements
Two types of transition elements—transition metals and inner transition metals. They are classified based on their electron configurations.
transition metal, the highest occupied s sublevel and a nearby d sublevel contain electrons.
inner transition metal, the highest occupied s sublevel and a nearby f sublevel generally contain electrons.
